Commissioning and Packing Donations Sunday 6 March

With the commissioning of the El Hogar team at this morning's service, Canon Stuart officially sent us on our way for the one week mission trip to El Hogar in Tegucigalpa, Honduras:
Cathy P, Chris P, Darla T-S, Glen K, Janice S, Louise N, Megan S, Melissa K, Michael S, Ray P, Rick R, Rosalind R, Taylor R, and Tom Z.

Our flight leaves on Friday, and we arrive at the El Hogar school on Saturday. We are all excited and busy making last minute arrangements.

After the service we gathered in the hall to pack all of the donations received from parishioners and others. We will take all these items with us to El Hogar where they will be gratefully received and well used - jeans, shirts, toiletries, games, footballs,...




























Of special note are the 25 hand crafted dolls made and donated by Phyllis B and Kathryn R for the girls at the school.



























Muchas gracias a todos!
